|| Atomic Number: || || 10 || Atomic Radius: || .848 pm || || Atomic Symbol: || Ne || Melting Point: || -258.59 �C || || Atomic Weight: || 20.179 || Boiling Point: || -246.08 �C || || Electron Configuration: || [He]2s22p6 || Oxidation States: || [1] Discovered by Ramsay and Travers in 1898. Neon is a rare gaseous element present in the atmosphere to the extent of 1 part in 65,000 of air. It is obtained by liquefaction of air and separated from the other gases by fractional distillation. A colourless, odourless gas that comprises 18 parts per million of air. Neon will not react with any other substance. It is produced from liquid air for ornamental lighting (i.e. neon signs) because it glows red when an electrical discharge is passed through it.
